Creating Closeness and Communication in a Changing Relationship
When: Saturday, April 21, 10:30–11:30 am
Where: San Carlos Room
This interactive workshop will offer participants an opportunity to learn about, ask questions, and discuss couple's therapy when one of the individuals identifies as transgender. In addition to the already complicated dynamics in couple’s therapy, there is the additional layer of transgender manifestation that impacts their relating and relationship. Beverly offers her experience working with transgendered individuals, their spouses/loved ones, and other family members such as children, parents, and siblings. Her focus is on assisting the couple to find ways that lead to a good quality of life whether together or apart. Communication strategies and accepting personal responsibility for one’s own well-being will be incorporated.
